Benson’s 40 B Build
I guess that I will chronicle this setup. Yesterday I boughta 40 B and stand from Petco… the dollar a gallon sale. My plan is to take downmy 29 gallon tank and replace it with the 40B. This morning I have ordered fromBRS the dry reef saver rock. I am hoping that it is cleaner than the dry Fiji rock I gotfrom them. I also ordered more of the Dr Tim’s One and Only bacteria. I stillneed to order the lights from RapidLed.
I am looking at having the tank drilled by the local glassshop this weekend. Then I will paint the back. Not sure what color to paint it.Black hides all the pipes and overflow boxes better, but blue looks nice withthe good lighting.
I will still use the 20 gallon sump, protein skimmer,heater, phosphate reactor, and auto top off system that I have on the 29. Iwill use some of the live rock along with the rock I ordered. I also plan onusing some of the live rock in my 20L once that tank is cycled.
Pictures to follow!!!
